  1. When you left last time you said it was shifting fine??? Either way if you're unhappy with how it shifts I'll pay for your gas to drive on over, put your truck back to stock, and refund your money for the shift kit. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dude, I am sorry! Please dont make my truck stock! I just dont know shit about transmissions and was trying to share my experence when I seem to feel the same thing. I would sell my truck if it was stock again I know next time I am out that we will get some logging done and that will be the best way to really see what is going on. besides that I thank you for being so cool as to offer a refund, dude you have been nothing but stand up and the only person who I would trust to work on my truck! I am looking for a reason to get back out with mods but my wife thinks I am cheating on her, I guess she is right it is just with my truck I want you to put the kit on her van's TH700 or what ever they used to call the trans in her astro
  2. under heavy acceleration the belt is known for slipping a bit, it is all that engine torque
  3. I had my servos out to see if that was it and they were fine, zippy thought it was the poodle clip and it was not everything in there was fine I am starting to think it it in the valve body or the seperator plate? or is it a broken accumulator-which I doubt, but could be possible? Transmissions and me are like me trying to speak chinese or It is the truck gods asking us to put a 6L70 in our trucks thanks for the update
  4. drive up to michigan, the guy w/twin turbos has his old stock one, and there has been talk of the 4L70 fitting into our trucks too
  5. get some custome clothes, like a silveradoss suit! talored too
  6. so if your accumulator piston broke there whould be slipping/pause before the shift or after? I still get this strange pause after the shift where the trans is not grapping second?? wonder if this is the same,I have a zippy shift kit too
  7. what about just a good cam to go with your mods as listed?? I am about the same but dont know what could get done in a year but a cam swap now is very doable, but what are the limits with a cam? If a cam is in the future should I order a "touring Corsa" instead of the sport? Good question, what cam for us NA guys? Oh yea I already have a TB TC
  8. well this van is like a mini SS I did the front brakes which was just on time, and I changed the front diff fluid, thanks MR. P-you how to was guiding me thru w/ the astro!
  9. I used some clamps and only lost about a liter of coolant or less.
  10. so it was too quiet? they say it loudens up some after they brake in but in general you say you just want it louder? where are you shipping is the key,you can get them new w/free shipping so your local is imoportant.

  13. Used about 18K miles. Not too dirty. $30 + shipping to your door.
  14. SOLD! I decided not to use this so I want to pass it on. It does not have the ramair tube. I have extra plex glass for aother cover, I was going to double up to make it stiffer.
  15. Pic added I need to know what I should check/change/replace??? 1.Front brakes make sound 2.service differentals 3.Change tranny fluid???? what should I look for? thanks I will probably put it on jackstands this weekend .
  16. they need some detailing to help in keeping stuff safe from temps. and upgrade the turbo and there is the whole not towing stuff they talk about but with a different turbo whoknows
